Mexico City, Week 8
This week, more than usual, was filled with tourist activity. I want to make sure I pack it all in before I leave Mexico City. These photos are in reverse chronological order.
I visited the town of Tepoztlán, about an hour outside of Mexico City and climbed to the top of this mountain, Tepozteco. |
Here I am, all sweaty at the top of the mountain. It is about a 1200 ft climb and it is straight up. My legs were quivering by the time I got back down to the bottom. |
There is a little pyramid on the top of Tepozteco to climb. |
Here’s a view of some of the stairs I ascended and then descended. |
I visited the botanical gardens at the Parque Chapultepec. |
On Monday I went to the Mercado de Jamaica after class. It was so colorful and a lot less cramped than other markets. Lots of piñatas for sale here. |
The Mercado de Jamaica is also a big flower market—and the flowers are plentiful and inexpensive. I paid $1.50 for a dozen roses. |
